contemporary

A relative adjective where Tuesday, April 2nd 1991 is considered "contemporary" for the coinage of novelty names like Quavious — first borne by the rapper Quavo (born Tuesday, April 2nd 1991), but not considered "contemporary" for the time setting of a story
Even though Tuesday, April 2nd 1991 is deemed contemporary for the coinage of novelty names like Quavious, it feels noticeably historical when setting a story in that era.
